With $5 million and their lives on the line, can a determined criminologist and a beautiful con artist learn to trust each other? Or themselves? Roxy Tanner lies for a living.

When Roxy reveals that she has the money, Skip is sure of one thing: his way-too-attractive client is lying to him.

About the Author

Terry’s first jobs involved skip tracing and repossessing cars. He later managed customer service and marketing departments for two public utilities. Those early days of dealing with people who couldn’t, or wouldn’t, pay their bills provided him with insight into what makes people lie and fertile ground for his fiction writing.

License to Lie was a page turner right from the start. I was totally hooked and committed to following the plot evolve, eagerly awaiting each new twist and turn. I loved the back and forth chapters, each focused on one or the other of the main characters, Roxy and Skip. It's up to the reader to decide if they really like these two; I still haven't made up my mind about Roxy! The dialog is well written with a crisp and snappy back and forth that lets the story develop in a really entertaining way. Thanks for a totally engrossing, fast read. I hope there will be a License to Lie 2!

This is a great read - characters are well defined, the suspense builds, and the story is captivating. Well paced and full of action and intrigue (and some humor), this is a real page turner. Looking forward to more from this exceptional author.

A fast pace, an unlikely pair of accomplices, short chapters with alternating points of view, a variety of crimes—from fraud to kidnapping to murder—and a nascent romance that threatens to get in the way are the main elements making the Southern California novel License to Lie by Terry Ambrose a top notch mystery.

It’s really fast. The story consumes only a few days and each of the two protagonists have multiple challenges unrelated to each other—until they meet. Strange characters and surprises, some menacing, some puzzling, come along quickly. The prose is lean without being emaciated. Settings, people are described with enough detail to create good images and put you in the scenes.

“My insides churned with a dangerous combination of rage and fear that pumped my system full of adrenaline and dulled my senses.”
